The Attractions of Britain

Every place and culture has something unique about it and it is this contrast in geography and culture that bacons people to new, different places across the world. There’s something about Britain that makes it so attractive to everyone, and it has been the case for decades or may be centuries now. Sir Charles Chaplin while reminiscing about his early years in England said how he loved sitting in a park watching people walking to work in the cold misty weather. “This was the London that could wean me away from any country”, he said. He spoke of just London but there’s so much more to the English culture and scenery that anyone who can, must travel to and see the beauty of this place.

Another reason for this universal appeal of the British may be that there’s hardly any place or culture on the planet that has at some point not been influenced by Britain. The modern world that we live in today has so much of the British language and culture ingrained in it that it’s impossible to separate it. On the other hand, Britain has readily embraced people from different cultures and all parts of the world, attracting them with it’s democratic and open values and finest infrastructure and civil amenities; and it has done this consistently without being too loud about it, unlike some other places.


If you can do it and finance is not an impediment, file your documents for visa with the help of Birmingham immigration solicitors, and hop on to that plane.  

Healthy Immigration from European Union Positively Impacts UK Economy

Healthy Migration has worked favourably for UK economy in the past years. European migrants have always seen UK as a sustainable economy with potential opportunities for professional growth and better quality of life.

It’s just not the migrants who are benefited but the host also get various benefits in terms of skilled professionals and greater taxes. In a recent research conducted by the UCL Centre for Research and Analysis of Migration (CReAM), European migrants who have arrived in UK since 2000 have contributed more than £20bn to the government coffers. The figure has substantially helped the government in relieving the fiscal burden along with contributing to the financing of public services. 

The report reveals that over a period of 2001-2011, European immigrants from the EU-15 countries contributed 64% more in taxes than they received in benefits. Immigrants from the Central and East European ‘accession’ countries (the ‘A10’) contributed 12% more than they received. 
Apart from the benefit the country has made in terms of taxes, these immigrants have endowed the country with highly skilled and productive human capital that would have cost UK a whopping £6.8bn in spending on education. The numbers are the strong indicators of the positive impact which a balanced immigration could bring to UK making it a competitive and progressing nation in the world.
